A woman song, 没那麼简单 can be loosely translated as It’s Not That Easy. It acknowledges a woman’s desire to find love yet understand the difficulty of maintaining the relationship.
It is not a weepy-love-lost song. It is not a happy-found-love song.
The lyrics resonate with me. It is difficult to find and maintain a meaningful relationship. Friends who were hitched earlier are now experiencing marriage problems. Of course, happiness is not impossible and I, like most people, long for companionship.
On the other hand, I can’t totally dismiss the costs and risks either. Risk of betrayal and costs of accommodation. Peace from an emotional rollercoaster and freedom from family obligations are appealing and benefits that I enjoy as a single right now.
I can go home and plonked on my sofa and watched TV after work. A mother can’t do that. I can buy a plane ticket and go travelling next week without having to seek “permission” from the other half.
Lyrics of 没那麼简单
没那麼简单 就能找到 聊得来的伴 尤其是在 看过了那麼多的背叛 总是不安 只好强悍 谁谋杀了我的浪漫 没那麼简单 就能去爱 别的全不看 变得实际 也许好也许坏各一半 不爱孤单 一久也习惯 不用担心谁 也不用被谁管 感觉快乐就忙东忙西 感觉累了就放空自己 别人说的话 随便听一听 自己作决定 不想拥有太多情绪 一杯红酒配電影 在周末晚上 关上了 手机 舒服窝在沙发裡 相爱没有那麼容易 每个人有他的脾气 过了爱作梦的年纪 轰轰烈烈不如平静 幸福没有那麼容易 才会特别让人着迷 什麼都不懂的年纪 曾经最掏心 所以最开心 曾经 想念最伤心 但却最动心 的记忆
English Translation
It is not that simple, finding someone you can talk to Especially after witnessing so much betrayal Always unconcerted, toughening up is inevitable Who killed my romanticism It is not that simple, to love and to embrace everything There are pros and cons to being realistic It is not that I love loneliness, but I get used to it There's no one to worry about, no one to answer to I pack my days with activities when I feel like it I give myself a holiday when I am tired Others can say what they like but I make my own decisions No more emotional rollercoasting A glass of red wine and a movie A phone that is switched off and a comfortable sofa That's my weekend night Love is not that easy, everybody has their temperaments I'm passed the age of dreaming, peace might be better than fireworks Happiness is not that easy, which is why it is attractive In the age of innocence I once loved with all my heart, felt the greatest happiness, ONCE Memories are both sad and touching
